Different types of Nevada Assignment and Agreement for Sale of Musical Composition to Publisher may include: 1.

The publisher gains non-exclusive rights to the musical composition, enabling them to distribute, market, and exploit it while other assignors can also engage other publishers. 3. Assignment and Agreement for the Sale of Musical Composition with Royalties: In this type of agreement, the assignor receives a percentage of revenue generated from the musical composition's exploitation (such as sales, streaming, licensing, etc.). The assignee/publisher is responsible for distributing the agreed-upon share of royalties to the assignor. 4.
